<p>Rape of Belgium<br/> The Rape of Belgium was the German mistreatment of civilians during the invasion and subsequent occupation of Belgium during World War I. The term initially had a propaganda use but recent historiography confirms its reality.[1] One modern author uses it more narrowly to describe a series of German war crimes in the opening months of the war (August–September 1914).[2]</p>
<p>The neutrality of Belgium had been guaranteed by the Treaty of London (1839), which had been signed by Prussia. However, the German Schlieffen Plan required that German armed forces violate Belgium’s neutrality in order to outflank the French Army, concentrated in eastern France. The German Chancellor Theobald von Bethmann Hollweg dismissed the treaty of 1839 as a "scrap of paper".[3] Throughout the beginning of the war, the German army engaged in numerous atrocities against the civilian population of Belgium, including the destruction of civilian property; 6,000 Belgians were killed, and 17,700 died during expulsion, deportation, imprisonment, or a death sentence by court.[4] 25,000 homes and other buildings in 837 communities were destroyed in 1914 alone, and 1.5 million Belgians (20% of the entire population) fled from the invading German army.[5]:13<br/> source: Wikipedia</p>

<p><strong><a href="http://www.dailywire.com/news/21205/swedens-big-solution-their-rape-crisis-booklet-paul-bois#" target="_blank">Muslim Rape Crisis In Sweden</a></strong></p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>From the Article:</strong></p>
<p></p>
<p><em>The guidebook comes as a result of Sweden's growing rape epidemic, with public records <a href="http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/03/23/report-9-in-10-gang-rapists-in-sweden-have-foreign-origins/">showing</a> that 85% of all gang rapes and sexual assault were committed by migrants. The staggering numbers have earned it the infamous title "<a href="https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/5195/sweden-rape">Rape Capital of the West</a>" from the Gatestone Institute (GI), an international nonprofit policy council.</em></p>
<p><em>"The country experienced a large influx of Muslims in the 1970s after the country chose to become multicultural," ChurchMilitant noted. "The only country with more rapes per capita as of 2010 was Lesotho in Southern Africa."</em></p>
<p><em>The Gatestone Institute's statistics show that Sweden has experienced a 1,472% increase in rapes since 1975.</em></p>
<p><em><span id="docs-internal-guid-49ab7d41-7cef-a3b3-7c26-19a6684f9b53">"The country has had a history of </span><a href="http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/03/23/report-9-in-10-gang-rapists-in-sweden-have-foreign-origins/">downplaying</a> the number of rapes by committed by migrants," CM continued. "Sweden has refused for more than a decade to keep official statistics of the origin of such criminals."</em></p>
<p>Now comes a <a href="https://www.defendevropa.org/2017/migrants/rapes-sweden-children/">new report</a> from the independent news group that says 43% of the rapes are committed against children. From <em><a href="https://www.defendevropa.org/2017/migrants/migrant-crime/rapedemic-sweden-true-rape-culture/">Defend Europa</a>:</em></p>
<blockquote><p>The data, which looks at Swedish rape figures for the first half of 2017, concludes that 3430 violent rapes were carried out during this period. 1470 (43%) of these rapes were carried out on children (ages 0-17) and 1960 (57%) of these rapes were carried out on adults (ages 18+).</p>
<p>In relation to the child rapes:</p>
<p>88% were carried out on girls.<br/>12% were carried out on boys.<br/>In relation to the adult rapes:</p>
<p>95% were carried on out women.<br/>5% were carried out on men.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The Swedes need not worry, though, because the new guidebook will surely enlighten rapists who operate according to a cultural standard entirely antithetical to the West's conception that rape is evil.</p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>Nearly 100% of the terrorist attack in the world are perpetrated by Muslims.</strong></p>
<p></p>
<p>At one time rape was almost unheard of in Sweden and Sweden had one of the lowest crime rates in the world and then they decided to tolerate Islam. Tolerating Islam is not much different than tolerating Nazism. What people who have never read the Koran and the Haddith don't know is that unlike every other religion is that Islam has absolutely no redeeming values whatsoever. The term Islamo-fascism is very accurate. Muslims are like Bible belt Christians on steroids.</p>
<p>I despise Trump but I think he has a point about keeping Muslims out of the US. He lied through his teeth about Mexicans. Mexicans are Catholics and illegal Mexican immigrants are actually more law abiding than Americans and IMO a positive for America. When you compare the Catholic North East to the Bible Belt the Northeast is much more law abiding. Catholicism is probably why. </p>
<p>Blond women in Sweden are dying their hair to avoid being target of Muslim rapists.</p>
<p>I have been called intolerant for stating the facts about religions. If I were king of the world I would confiscate the wealth of the Abrahamic institutions and eradicate the Abrahamic faiths like they never existed. History is drenched with the blood of the lies and ignorance caused by followers of the God of Abraham.<strong> </strong>I am intolerant of fascists especially the ones who invoke "God". If there were a bounty on them I'd be filthy rich.</p>
<p>The facts speak for themselves. The "religion of peace" is the religion of rape. Anyone who freely embraces Islam probably should be eliminated. I liken Muslims to pitbulls. They are a dangerous breed with little or no value. </p>
<p>Sweden has imported <a href="http://www.jihadwatch.org/2012/05/report-swedens-population-is-skyrocketing-because-of-muslim-immigration-shocking-56-percent-populati.html">huge numbers of Muslim immigrants </a>with catastrophic effect.</p>
<p></p>
<blockquote><p>Sweden’s population grew from 9 million to 9.5 million in the years 2004-2012, mainly due to immigration from “countries like Afghanistan, Iraq and Somalia”. 16 percent of all newborns have mothers born in non-Western countries. Employment rate among immigrants: 54 percent.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Sweden now has the second <a href="http://www.friatider.se/sverige-toppar-internationell-valdtaktsstatistik">highest number of rapes in the world</a>, after South Africa, which at 53.2 per 100,000 is six times higher than the United States. Statistics now suggest that <a href="http://themuslimissue.wordpress.com/2013/01/28/shocking-predictive-muslim-rape-numbers-one-in-four-swedes-will-be-raped/">1 out of every 4 Swedish women</a> will be raped.</p>
<p>In 2003, <a href="http://www.friatider.se/sverige-toppar-internationell-valdtaktsstatistik">Sweden’s rape statistic</a>s were higher than average at 9.24, but in 2005 they shot up to 36.8 and by 2008 were up to 53.2. Now they are almost certainly even higher as Muslim immigrants continue forming a larger percentage of the population.</p>
<p>With Muslims represented<a href="http://themuslimissue.wordpress.com/2012/08/20/the-living-hell-for-swedish-women-5-muslims-commit-nearly-77-6-of-all-rape-crimes/"> in as many as 77 percent </a>of the rape cases and a major increase in rape cases paralleling a major increase in Muslim immigration, the wages of Muslim immigration are proving to be a sexual assault epidemic by a misogynistic ideology.</p>
<p>The statistics are skewed by urban centers where the Islamic colonists cluster. In Stockholm this summer there was <a href="http://www.jihadwatch.org/2012/08/swedish-rape-jihad-police-reported-an-average-of-five-rapes-a-day-in-stockholm.html">an average of 5 rapes a day</a>. Stockholm has gone from a Swedish city to a city that is one-third immigrant and is between a fifth and a quarter Muslim.</p>
<p>Sweden, like the rest of the West, will have to come to terms with the fact that it can either have female equality or Muslim immigration. It cannot have both.</p>

<p></p> Euthyphro - how to argue how someone can be moral without God watchingtag:atheistnexus.org,2017-08-18:2182797:Topic:27612422017-08-18T22:56:19.524ZP.http://atheistnexus.org/profile/P399
<p>I wanted to share the following information with people, since most people are not familiar with Greek philosophy. I had an American Atheists shirt on, while wandering in a shopping mall. A Jewish man approached me and claimed that there was absolutely no reason to be moral if there is no God. Having grown up atheist, I knew he was dead wrong, but I hadn't thought enough about how to answer him sufficiently to evince why he was wrong.

<p>I wanted to share the following information with people, since most people are not familiar with Greek philosophy. I had an American Atheists shirt on, while wandering in a shopping mall. A Jewish man approached me and claimed that there was absolutely no reason to be moral if there is no God. Having grown up atheist, I knew he was dead wrong, but I hadn't thought enough about how to answer him sufficiently to evince why he was wrong. I am typing this to let other atheists be prepared if a similar situation happens to them.</p>
<p>After the incident at the mall, I later majored in philosophy and read Euthyphro by Plato. The work explains very well why one does not need a God watching in order to keep one from committing criminal acts. The work explores whether rules are moral because God says they are or whether God says rules are moral because they already are.</p>
<p>Now, I would go back to this Jewish man and ask "If God tells you it is okay to torture and kill an innocent person, is it really okay?" Clearly the answer is that it is not. Even if the person arguing against you does think that such behavior would be immoral if God commands it, you can make him or her look quite bad defending his or her position by creatively using vivid descriptions of despicable behavior. Also, one can bring up how he or she would distinguish God's word from Satan's if he or she still disagrees. However, if the person still claims that God can make it okay for one to commit, say, genocide by claiming it is okay, it must have to be the case that God says things are moral or immoral because they already are. Thus, if God is merely saying behaviors are moral or immoral because they already are, it is easy to see that atheists have reason to behave morally without needing a psychic in the sky who knows through ESP whether one has been good or bad and who can deliver a painful chastisement to him or her in recompense for immoral behavior. This is exactly what one wishes to show, and it is how I would now approach the same Jewish man if I ever see him again, assuming I were able to recognize him.</p> Compelledunbeliever, a Sexist, Feminist (overcoming religious conditioning)tag:atheistnexus.org,2017-07-14:2182797:Topic:27560572017-07-14T15:20:32.502ZCompelledunbelieverhttp://atheistnexus.org/profile/Compelledunbeliever
<p> I have put a great deal of effort into overcoming my religious conditioning. It has been of great concern for me. I must act and behave rationally rather than blindly based on religious edicts such as gender roles.</p>

<p> Sam Harris in his book <em>FREE WILL</em> points out that there are certain behaviors we have that are beyond our control such as the fright response. We also respond to situations according to our cultural upbringing. Thus we may not have much choice at all as to how we respond and thus may not have the free will we would like to believe we have.</p>
<p> Richard Carrier admits the same causes of our behavior but believes we have the power to make an adjustment. I will relate I as I recall hopefully, as I am paraphrasing this thoughts I do not do him injustice.</p>
<p> 1) We must accept we have both internal instincts and external influences that modify our thoughts and behavior. These may not be rational or even beneficial but they do effect our thinking and behavior.</p>
<p> 2) We must identify these influences </p>
<p> 3) Once we recognize them we must use rational thought to think through why we are doing what we are doing or thinking what we are thinking.</p>
<p> 4) If our impulse is not rational we must make the change in our thinking (which is very difficult as we are dealing with he subconscious)</p>
<p>This is not his wording but what I understood to be the general idea. (my memory is bad I wish I could remember where he laid this out)</p>
<p></p>
<p> I grew up in the Christian church complete with gender roles. People could easily point to you in the bible where in Corinthians 2 it tells women to keep their mouths shut and submit to the men. In practice the women seemed to actually be in charge behind the scenes. I could not buy into females being less than or imperfect men. There were many churches that had Women in esteemed positions. If girls were incapable of leadership why did we have so many constant Joan of Arc chicks? I was pro women's lib, rights etc. Actually it did go beyond that I enjoyed the company of women more than men. In general I found them to be much smarter and interesting than men. I do not know if a male libido played into this but lets just let it rest at the fact that I believed women to be equal to, if not superior to men. </p>
<p></p>
<p> A few months ago I was on a David Silverman youtube binge. On one video David Silverman introduced himself as an atheist and a Feminist. What??????????</p>
<p> It dawned on me that I was a feminist. I had <em>always</em> been a feminist<em>. </em>It had never occurred to me that a male could be a feminist. Why? Because I was a SEXIST, feminist. Due to my religious conditioning I had always considered feminism to be a female role. I was a JERK feminist without even knowing it. Even though I had tried my best to overcome my religious conditioning in this very area, it was so deeply ingrained that I did not know it was there. My point here is that religious conditioning or more appropriately said, brainwashing can come up in the most unexpected places. We must be aware of, and on guard against many of our cultural, specifically religious influences.</p>
<p> Lesson learned. Hopefully as a result of this lesson I will now be a much less sexist, Feminist. </p> Bertrand Russell's Ten Commandmentstag:atheistnexus.org,2017-06-21:2182797:Topic:27527782017-06-21T16:13:40.378ZBertold Brautiganhttp://atheistnexus.org/profile/BertoldBrautigan

When you meet with opposition, even if it should be from your husband or your children, endeavor to overcome it by argument and not by authority, for a victory dependent upon authority is unreal and illusory.<br/> <br/>5. Have no respect for the authority of others, for there are always contrary authorities to be found.<br/> <br/>6. Do not use power to suppress opinions you think pernicious, for if you do the opinions will suppress you.<br/> <br/>7. Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric.<br/> <br/>8. Find more pleasure in intelligent dissent than in passive agreement, for if you value intelligence as you should, the former implies a deeper agreement than the latter.<br/> <br/>9. Be scrupulously truthful even if the truth is inconvenient, for it is more inconvenient when you try to conceal it.<br/> <br/>10. Do not feel envious of the happiness of those who live in a fool’s paradise, for only a fool will think that it is happiness.</p>

<br />
We know there's more to atheist morality than that, much more.<br />
<br />
For instance there's science, especially the social sciences and what research tells us of how people react to what others do, or don't do.<br />
<br />
There’s also the biggie, evolution and its method natural selection. Our morality determines some of our views on living and dying: how much should the government (the taxpayers) spend on health care, especially early in life and late in life, but also when mid-life events affect health and when genetic problems apppear.<br />
<br />
Our occupying an indifferent universe (not a hostile universe) also partly defines atheist morality. For instance, the universe has no purpose; only each of us has or doesn't have purpose.<br />
<br />
Those are but starting points. What does atheist morality require of us?

<p>I just finished going through a list of dynasties in Egypt from the Early Dynastic Period, starting about c.3100 BCE. I am interested in how one pharaoh's leadership time ended and how did it end. So many individuals lost their power through violence it makes me wonder why any of them would want to lead. Why would a person deliberately put his or her life in the crosshairs of a bow and arrow, a hangman's noose, or the possibility of being knocked in the head with a mace, or some other weapon of war? </p>
<p>We know, in our time and our nation, we can expect to have regime change in the election process of one person having one vote. Never mind the reality that thugs and bullies shoot down the progressive ideas, figuratively and literally and that real power resides behind the screen. </p>
<p>OK, that is our reality! Now, what thoughts and actions can we make that will create a new reality? We are a moral and ethical lot, on the whole, and we stand on principles of non-violence. </p>
<p>A public dissent makes a difference! Stand up in school meetings or before the city council and declare that we need a wall between religion and public education. It is a simple concept and one that any of us can do. </p>
<p>We can talk to our legislators at the state and federal level to express our concerns about global warming. </p>
<p>Others in our communities think as we do and we can engage in discussions with them and start talking about the widening gap between rich and poor. Education and health care for the wealthy and not the wage-worker goes contrary to the safety net that we built up after WW II. </p>
<p>We can find other groups who share our values and work with them to raise awareness of current problems that need solving. Forming coalitions means gaining power. </p>
<p>If the government is successful in closing down dissent by closing down alternative progressive media, we can find other ways to communicate, i.e., the internet, use the phone or letters, or by assembling. </p>
<p>We have to stop scapegoating; the real cause of our problems are the banks and financial institutions that favor the wealthy and ignore the needs of the wage-worker. </p>
<p>WE ARE NOT HELPLESS IN THESE MATTERS. We only need to think and take action to mobilize the citizens. </p>
<blockquote><p><span>O]ur social contract is underwritten by socialistic policies such as Social Security, Health Care, highways and by ways maintained by governments, police departments, and a standing military; for the benefit and good of all, even if more for some than others. Will all of this be dismantled in a sociopathic jihad that posits everyone should be on their own in some kind of jungle ethos? Are we just going to give this a whirl and see where it ends while the rest of the world watches?</span></p>
